A Pair of Queens (1915)
Jimmie Page and Ed Armstrong are bunkies in Company E, stationed near the Nueces River, Texas. Deep, abiding friendship such as only men know, exists between the two, which is strengthened, when, on a fishing trip, Ed rescues his friend from drowning. Page is very grateful and tells Ed whenever he can serve him not to fail to call on him. Twenty years later, Armstrong, now a widower, living in Arizona, is told he has but a few months to live. He accordingly sends a note to his old friend Jimmie Page, entrusting his daughter, Anita to his care. Page is not overjoyed as he believes the girl to be a mere child, but for old times' sake, accepts the guardianship. Shortly afterwards, he visits New York. There, by a strange turn of fate, he saves Anita, a beautiful 10-year-old girl, from a couple of thugs, but does not learn her identity, He finds a handbag she dropped, containing only her photograph, and falls in love with the picture but can find no trace of its owner. Anita's father dies and she is sent to her guardian, Captain Page. When she arrives, the Captain is out, bemoaning the fate that saddled him with a ward and no mother to care for it. Mac, the Captain's aide, recognizes the girl from seeing her photo in his possession, and arranges a little surprise. Page returns to find the girl playing the piano. Needless to say, his joy knows no bounds on learning the girl of the photo and his ward are one and the same. She soon becomes his wife, and at the wedding feast, Page offers a stirring toast to his old friend and bunkie, Ed Armstrong.
